Key Takeaways:

- Israel Backs the Plan: Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called the development a major achievement and credited Trump’s leadership, adding that Israel will retain control of key strategic positions to ensure long-term security.
- Peace Through Strength: The Trump Plan continues to deliver real-world results, demonstrating that American power, diplomacy, and resolve can achieve what years of global negotiations could not—peace built on strength, not weakness.
President Donald J. Trump announced Saturday that Israel has agreed to the “initial withdrawal line” in Gaza, marking a major step forward in his push for peace in the Middle East. The move, shared with Hamas for approval, could trigger an immediate ceasefire and the long-awaited exchange of Israeli hostages and Palestinian prisoners.
“After negotiations, Israel has agreed to the initial withdrawal line, which we have shown to, and shared with, Hamas. When Hamas confirms, the Ceasefire will be IMMEDIATELY effective, the Hostages and Prisoner Exchange will begin, and we will create the conditions for the next phase of withdrawal, which will bring us close to the end of this 3,000 YEAR CATASTROPHE,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “Thank you for your attention to this matter and, STAY TUNED!”
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called the development “a very great achievement,” noting that the deal could bring home every hostage while ensuring Israel maintains control of key positions inside Gaza. “Either it will be achieved the easy way, or it will be achieved the hard way — but it will be achieved,” he said.
Under the Trump Plan, Israel will oversee Gaza’s demilitarization while preparing for long-term regional stability. Netanyahu also thanked Trump for his decisive support, including his role in deploying B2 bombers against Iran’s Fordo nuclear site.
Once again, American leadership under Trump is reshaping global diplomacy through strength, clarity, and results—proving that peace through power is more than a slogan. It is the Trump Doctrine in action.
